Pregnant With Twins: My CEO’s Tricky Love novel Chapter 100

“Miss Lane, I’m so sorry. I promised you that it would not go wrong with the questioning. I was not thoughtful enough. You have a good rest at home and I’ll look into this matter carefully.”

Selena can guess out it must be related to Robert Simpson’s mother. But she still decided to investigate it in case there were some unexpected people involved in it.

As she hung up, Selena looked towards the woman kneeling in front of her.

Perhaps she should give Mrs Moss one more chance now that it was an accident and granny was also used to Mrs Moss’s caring.

“Mrs Moss, I forgive you this time, but there is no next time. I’ll call you any time in the future to ask about the situation. If you repeat what happened today, pack your things and get out of my face.”

Mrs Moss nodded with gratitude.

Selena made phone calls and started to investigate the matter. She got her own manpower and connections.

Moreover, she can also count on her brother, Jasper Holland. She just didn’t believe that she couldn’t find out how many people on earth behind this matter.

After this matter, Selena was more and more convinced that Georgia was wronged.

She felt very sorry that something bad happened to Georgia because of her.

So she thought she should help Georgia.

After asking her close friends’ help on this matter, Selena returned to the ward. Mrs Moss was getting a cup of water for granny.

Mrs Phillips came to awareness and in good spirit.

“My dear, it’s been long enough for you to accompany me. I heard you take a day off to come here. I’m better now, and you should go back to have some rest. Mrs Moss is taking care of me, don’t you worry.”

Granny seemed to be very satisfied with Mrs Moss in her job. And Selena was reassured a little bit.

“Granny, I rarely visit you. Now you got injured at home, I should spend more time with you.”

Mrs Phillips smiled benignly.

“As long as you come to see me occasionally, I would be overjoyed. Selena, you’re in a different position from now, don’t split too much of your energy on me.”

Selena lowered her head sadly. Mrs Phillips was her granny in blood. Her parents had passed away.

And she was adopted by the Holland family. It was a complicated story to tell.

The Holland family had a daughter about her age.

The daughter was born when Jasper Holland was five years old.

Jasper loved his sister very much. And the Holland family lived a jolly happy life with a son and a daughter.

But the Hollands was a big family, old Mr Holland, Jasper’s grandfather had a love child.

And his love child, Jasper’s uncle, kidnapped Jasper and his sister.

At that time, Jasper was less than six years old and his sister was only about six months old.

Old Mr Holland was a fish-blooded and ruthless person. He had a love child, but he willed Jasper’s father as the sole heir of his possession, without leaving a penny to Jasper’s uncle.

As old Mr Holland got to know that his grandchildren were kidnapped, he gave his words to the family that they must try everything to rescue the children, especially his grandson, even at the cost of breaking up with Jasper’s uncle.

With the power and strength of the Holland family, they soon found the place where Jasper and his sister were kidnapped.

Old Mr Holland ordered his men to seize Jasper’s uncle’s family, his children and mother, to threaten him, forming a confrontational situation.

Jasper’s uncle was driven mad.

He tortured and cruelly killed Jasper’s sister in his face, and he was an only five-year-old boy by then.

He could only watch helplessly as his sister was killed, not being able to resist at all.

Jasper was saved but he had severe psychological problems since then. He can’t get back to reality from that terrible experience.

His parents nearly broke down. They took Jasper to many doctors, but no one could help.

Until one day, Selena’s parents were killed in a car accident when she was only several months old. Jasper happened to see her, a baby girl by then, and he called her sister.

Jasper insisted that Selena was his sister. Psychological therapist told Mr and Mrs Holland that Jasper can’t bear the fact that his sister was killed in front of him.

Therefore, the Holland family adopted Selena.

Jasper really doted on Selena these years.

But Mr and Mrs Holland didn’t have as much interest in Selena as Jasper did. Selena got to know her birth when she grew up.

It was Mrs Holland told her about it.

“Granny, you’re my granny. I should spend my time with you as a family of yours. As for the Holland family, they’re very liberal and generous, don’t you worry.”

Selena knew she should be Jasper Holland’s sister in her whole life.

Even if she fell in love with her brother, but as an adopted daughter, she had to hide her feelings.

She got back home after staying a whole night with her granny.

She had intended to ask Jasper for help to investigate how many dirty tricks the Simpson family played in the matter concerned with Georgia.

But the butler told her that Jasper hadn’t come back yet.

She made a call to Jasper.

“Brother, it’s been so late. What stops you coming back?”

Jasper was in a private box right now. Robert called to ask him out for drinking. That heartbroken man was sitting there, without a word, plying himself with one bottle after another of wine.

Jason joined him and both of them were dreadfully drunk, but they kept drinking with their awareness on, and Jasper had to be there accompanying them.

He knew clearly that his job was to drive the two drunks back to home. He answered the call from Selena, smiled.

“I have two drunken men to look after, Robert and Jason. They’re still drinking, and I’ll spend a little more time with them in the pub. After which, I’ll drive them back home and then I’ll be back. You don’t have to wait for me.”

Selena knew that Robert helped Georgia out today, but she felt rather odd that he was drinking with her brother now and got drunk.

Actually Selena could feel from Georgia’s words that her relationship with Robert was complicated.

Nevertheless, Selena was not the type of person keen on others’ affairs. She replied to his brother.

“All right. Just remember to come back early. And… I want to have a word with you. You remember to see me first tomorrow morning before you leave.”

After hanging up, Selena took a bath and went to sleep.

Back to Alfred, he was in his apartment in D City, while Vanessa had arrived at the gate.

Vanessa knocked at the door but nobody answered, so she entered the password of the door.

When the door was opened, she found that Rachel Scott was here in the apartment.

She was sitting on the lap of Alfred, and they were kissing each other intimately.

Vanessa went pale as a sheet when she saw this.

Hearing the noise, Rachel looked towards Vanessa, with a faint sneer of satisfaction crossing her face.

Alfred was even unwilling to take a look at her. He was busy burying his face in Rachel and kissed her, as if they were intimate lovers, because of which, Vanessa felt her eyes hurt terribly.

She thought thousands of ways that Alfred might use to revenge on her, but never did she expect to see Rachel Scott and him kissing each other like lovebirds as she opened the door.

More sadly, Vanessa felt herself to be cut deeply by the sight.

She still cared for Alfred!

Why did she care for this man if it was an irreparable relationship already?

“Vanessa, I’m thirsty, give me a glass of water.”

Rachel said smugly on Alfred’s lap.

It made Vanessa sick, and she didn’t want to move at all. At this time, Alfred looked up to her indifferently.

“Didn’t you hear what Rachel said? I’ll call the hospital which Annie is in if you don’t do as told!”

Alfred threatened her, which only made her feel bitterly painful, as if a knife torn her heart into pieces.

“All right. I’ll do it now.”

Taking a deep breath, Vanessa said.

She moved slowly towards the kettle, and then went up to Rachel with a glass of water. Rachel took it, and then she stood on her feet, pouring down the water over Vanessa’s head.

“Miss Cooke, you’re so dirty, let me help you clean.”

Vanessa’s eyes went red, but she even dared not to make a retort.

She was afraid Alfred would go mad.

He just stood by and stared at her heartlessly, without saying a word, which was a silent approval of Rachel’s rudeness.

Rachel smiled triumphantly as she looked at Vanessa who got wet.

“Miss Cooke, look at you, how funny you look now… Alfred has told me that from now on you are our housemaid. Now, we need some private time to have a good kiss. You go to the kitchen and cook the meal for us. I’m hungry.”

Vanessa stood still. She felt as if the knives from all sides cut her heart to pieces. But Alfred shot his cold sight to her again.

As if he would really make a call to the hospital and hurt Annie if she didn’t do it as Rachel told her.

The humiliation and revenge on her were more painful than she expected.

She took a deep breath and walked into the kitchen.

Joyful noise made by the man and woman came from outside the kitchen, which made her gross.

However, she can’t confront or disobey Alfred now.

Otherwise, this lunatic man may really cause Annie harm.

Taking out tomatoes, green pepper and potatoes of the fridge, she washed them clean and prepared to cook.

All Alfred wanted was to humiliate her and take revenge on her. She could bear it. She had suffered so much in her life, and it was just one more repeated routine in her life. How worse could it be?

She must be strong enough, and all she could do was to be strong.

When it was done, she came out of the kitchen, finding that Rachel had gone and Alfred standing in the center of the living room, in a bath towel.

He fixed his icy eyes on Vanessa and spoke in a freezing cold tone.

“Take a bath and wait on the bed.”

She looked at the man before her with shock, and she felt she was at the edge of being mad.

Nevertheless, Alfred sat at the table and started to eat, even didn’t bother to take a look at her.

With a deep breath, she had to admit that she had no power to confront this man.

Vanessa went to the bathroom, the tears that had been long repressed finally streaming down her face.

She just had to grin and bear it even if later the man used malicious words humiliating her, taunting her or denouncing her as dirty slut on the bed.

She had got used to sucking misery and sufferings.

Alfred had no idea at all that she has been terrified of men since she was harmed by those men six years ago.

She was terribly afraid no matter who approached her, including Alfred.

There was only pain left for her. It was only painful torture to her every time Alfred vented his lust on her.
